Path to final: It should be a toss-up between Belgium and England for top spot in Group G, but the rewards are very similar.

A second round tie will be against one of Colombia, Poland, Japan and Senegal out of an evenly matched Group H with the Group G winner then likely to face Brazil in the quarters with the runner-up probably taking on Germany.

France, Portugal or Uruguay are potential semi-final opponents for the group winner with Spain or Argentina waiting in the wings for the runner-up.
